Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

The sudden darkness made Li Xiu instinctively close his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely different world!

Chapter 1357 Brothers Separated

If there's anything familiar about it, it's the inheritance cave where I first entered Buzhou Mountain.

The space where Li Xiu is currently located can be said to be similar to that inheritance cave.

However, Li Xiu wasn't paying attention to that at the moment; he was more concerned about where Li Duotian had gone.

"Li Duotian, are you here?" Li Xiu called out directly.

However, there was no response at all.

At this moment, the connection between Li Duotian and Li Xiu also became blurred.

Although he could vaguely sense that Li Duotian was safe, Li Xiu still couldn't contact him no matter what.

However, it's not all bad news.

Although Li Duotian could not be contacted, the treasure-hunting system was unusually active in Li Xiu's mind at this moment.

It seems this place holds a great treasure.

However, Li Xiu was not very happy.

After all, Li Duotian was his most important asset.

"It seems we have no choice but to search this cave thoroughly as soon as possible, and then go out to find Li Duotian."

Li Xiu shook his head and continued moving forward.

Perhaps it was out of habit, but after arriving in this world, Li Xiu, who had just entered the cave, felt no sense of vigilance whatsoever.

After all, in this primordial world, wherever Li Xiu went was pioneering, so there was nothing to be careful about.

But this time, things are a little different.

As Li Xiu was moving forward, he discovered that there were other people's footprints on a patch of sand ahead!

"Is this Li Duotian?"

Upon seeing the footprints, Li Xiu immediately wondered if they belonged to his good brother.

However, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the footprint was considerably smaller compared to Li Duotian's.

It appears to be a woman's footprint.

Li Xiu naturally didn't care whether the person was male or female. After experiencing so many worlds, romantic love was no longer something that could move him.

"However, it's quite interesting that someone actually entered here before me."

"It seems I need to be more careful on this expedition."

Li Xiu was actually quite happy to see this situation.

After all, he'll enjoy good food more when someone else is competing with him for it.

If everything is laid out in front of me and no one is competing with me, I'll definitely slack off.

Li Xiu didn't think too much about it and carefully followed along quietly, walking towards the depths of the cave.

Meanwhile, Li Duotian was also teleported to a cave.

However, the space he was in was not in the same area as Li Xiu's.

On Li Duotian's side, the walls of the cave were all blue and reflected a faint light.

It looks like it's near water again.

Li Duotian was also somewhat helpless. He had already obtained the Heart of the Water God, so why hadn't his connection with water been severed yet?

However, since it is water, it is difficult to leave traces of others walking on it.

Li Duotian looked around but found no trace of anyone else in the cave.

Unable to contact his master, Li Duotian began his own exploration journey.

Perhaps I'll be able to contact Li Xiu once I leave the cave.

The two brothers were thinking similarly, it seems that their telepathic connection wouldn't be broken even if the connection disappeared!

Chapter 1358 The World Within the Cave

Back to Li Xiu, when he noticed someone ahead, he became more cautious, but his speed didn't decrease much.

However, the passage through the sand was indeed much longer than I had imagined.

Li Xiu estimated that he had been walking for about half an hour and still hadn't reached the end.

If it weren't for the increasingly strong treasure-hunting ability in his mind, Li Xiu might have even wondered if he had taken the wrong path.

"I had no choice but to keep going, it was so annoying."

The world inside the cave seems to have no precise concept of time.

Although Li Xiu believed he had only walked for half an hour, three whole days had passed!

Meanwhile, Wang Dali had already gone to headquarters to report the news.

When Wang Dali arrived at the Juli Sect's base at the foot of the mountain, almost all the elders who had been sent out had returned.

Their expressions were basically the same, indicating that they hadn't gained anything.

Wang Dali also asked an elder with whom he had a good relationship before, but the elder shook his head, indicating that there was no news.

Wang Dali was also troubled. If he couldn't bring back enough useful information, would the Great God punish him?

Wang Dali was also anxiously awaiting the sect leader's return.

Finally, the sect leader of the Giant Strength Sect returned.

When the sect leader saw that all his subordinates had their heads down, he knew there was no good news.

He didn't put on a friendly face either, and spoke to the group of people.

"They're all useless!"

"How long has it been?"

"Why can't we get any useful information?"

Hearing the sect leader's anger, the elders lowered their heads even further, fearing they would be used as examples for education.

However, they didn't notice that after the Giant Strength Sect Master finished cursing, he actually smiled.

Wang Dali was one of the elders standing relatively close to the front, and he caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that the sect leader didn't seem very angry.

So he mustered his courage and said, "Sect Master, is there some good news?"

When the sect leader saw that someone had asked him a question, he took the opportunity to speak.

"Although they are not very capable, they are all quite good at reading people."

"That's right, you bunch of good-for-nothings won't get you anything good."

When the elders heard what the sect leader said, they understood that something good must have happened to the sect leader today, and that he wouldn't be so angry.

They all fawned over him, saying, "May the sect leader live a long and prosperous life, and surely lead us to glory."

The sect leader of the Giant Strength Sect was quite pleased with the flattery, and he cleared his throat and said.

"Alright, that's enough, everyone."

"Listen carefully, there really is a treasure hidden in Buzhou Mountain!"

The elders below were all shocked to hear the sect leader's words, which were a bombshell.

Wang Dali then asked, "May I ask, Sect Master, what is this news?"

The sect leader glanced at Wang Dali and continued, "While we were sparring with those mortal enemies at the foot of the mountain, just yesterday, something strange happened at Buzhou Mountain!"

"What?" The people below all showed expressions of disbelief.

They were in the mountains, and they didn't sense anything unusual at all.

Seeing their skeptical expressions, the sect leader questioned them, "What, would I lie to you?"

"As for why we can't see the changes in Buzhou Mountain from inside the mountain, I have no idea."

If Li Xiu were here, he would definitely add, "Viewed from the side, it's a range; viewed from the front, it's a peak; it's because I'm in the mountain myself."

Chapter 1359 Treasure Appears

The other elders also asked, "Then, Sect Master, where did this treasure come from?"

The sect leader of the Giant Strength Sect also explained, "Yesterday afternoon, two beams of light could be clearly seen shooting into the sky from the foot of the mountain."

"However, the beam of light only lasted for a very short time before it disappeared."

"Upon seeing this strange phenomenon, the group of old men all stopped and sent their men from the surrounding area to inquire about the situation."

"As it turns out, some guys nearby actually discovered the secret!"

The elders below were all listening attentively.

Although there are always many frictions between sects, generally speaking, when it comes to treasures, they still have to use their skills to obtain them.
